Kantanagar Temple Getting there & around

Getting there & away

You can get a bus from Dinajpur to Kan­tanagar (Tk 14, 45 minutes, 26km). It’s on the route to Thakurgaon but request Kantanagar, otherwise you may end up paying more and/or missing your stop.

From the main road where the bus drops you to the temple is 3km and a Tk 15 rickshaw ride for locals, but you would be lucky to get away with paying less than Tk 50. Ask the rickshaw to wait at the temple for you as there is no transport back again. The ride is along a pleasant, winding trail through a rural bliss of mustard, banana, rice and chilli fields, and little mud-and-wattle villages.
